Class AmbiguousTypeException

java.lang.Object
  java.lang.Throwable
      java.lang.Exception
          java.lang.RuntimeException
              org.qi4j.api.mixin.MixinMappingException
                  org.qi4j.api.composite.AmbiguousTypeException

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class AmbiguousTypeException
extends MixinMappingException

This Exception is thrown when more than one Composite implements a MixinType that one tries to use to create a Composite instance from.

For instance;

 public interface AbcComposite extends TransientComposite, Abc
 {}

 public interface DefComposite extends TransientComposite, Def
 {}

 public interface Abc
 {}

 public interface Def extends Abc
 {}


 TransientBuilder cb = factory.newTransientBuilder( Abc.class );
 

In the code above, both the AbcComposite and DefComposite implement Abc, and therefore the newTransientBuilder method can not unambiguously figure out which one is intended.
